A. Yes natural latch produces more milk. very important to see that position and attachment while breastfeeding the child is proper. if improper the child will continue to suck for long hrs without getting any milk meet lactational counsellor who will guide regarding this. see videos on you tube for breastfeeding position and attachment. take plenty of water, home made diet, seasonal fruits and vegetables, milk for increasing breast milk for yourself. take 15 to 30 days weight and growth assessment by the doctor.

A. No You can continue feeding your child in the similar pattern it’s absolutely not at all an issue and slowly gradually try to feed your child completely on breast as this way the feeding amount is always going to be good for the child and if your child continues to take proper feeling that the milk is going to increase only
